People Are Disappointed And 'Tired' After Seeing Justin Bieber's Comment On Chris Brown's Latest Instagram Post, So Here's All The Context
Following the backlash over his strange post about Hailey Bieber's Vogue cover, it's been a rough few days in the public eye for Justin Bieber. And now, his latest social media move has stirred up even more controversy. In case you missed it, on May 15, Chris Brown was arrested in the UK and charged with grievous bodily harm in connection with an alleged attack that took place in a London nightclub in 2023. After spending nearly a week in custody, the singer was released on $6.7 million bail on Wednesday, giving him the freedom to perform his upcoming world tour, which is scheduled to begin on June 8. Chris has been ordered to surrender his passport when not traveling for the tour. His next court appearance is scheduled in the UK for June 20, per the BBC. Yesterday, the singer celebrated his release on Instagram, posting a photo of himself disembarking a private jet with the caption: 'Cook, remain humble. ❤️' Thousands of fans took to the comments, and among them was none other than Justin Bieber, who both liked the post and commented: 'welcome home.' For context, Justin and Chris have a pretty long history as collaborators. Way back in 2011, they worked together on the song 'Next To You' from Chris's F.A.M.E. album. They collaborated again in 2019 on a track called 'Don't Check On Me.'

UK court orders singer Chris Brown freed on $6.7 million bail in assault case
LONDON -- A British judge ordered Grammy-winning singer Chris Brown released on 5 million-pound ($6.7 million) bail on Wednesday while facing allegations he beat and seriously injured a music producer with a bottle in a London nightclub in 2023. The decision by a judge in Southwark Crown Court revives Brown's world tour that was cast in doubt when another judge ordered him held in custody after he was charged last week with causing grievous bodily harm with intent. Judge Tony Baumgartner said that Brown could continue with this tour, including several stops in the U.K., but would have to pay the bail to guarantee his appearance in court. Brown was initially scheduled to appear in court again on June 13. If he had been held until then, Brown would have missed at least two dates on his upcoming tour, which starts next month in Europe. Brown, 36, is accused of launching an unprovoked attack on producer Abe Diaw at the Tape nightclub in the swanky Mayfair neighborhood in February 2023 while he was on last tour. Prosecutor Hannah Nicholls said last week in Manchester Magistrates' Court that Brown struck Diaw several times with a bottle and then punched and kicked him in an attack caught on surveillance camera in front of a club full of people. American musician Omololu Akinlolu, 38, who performs under the name 'Hoody Baby' and is a friend of Brown, was also charged in the attack. Neither Brown nor Akinlolu have entered a plea yet. Both men were ordered to appear in court again on June 20. Brown, who burst onto the music scene as a teen in 2005, won his first Grammy for best R&B album in 2011 for 'F.A.M.E.' and then earned his second in the same category for '11:11 (Deluxe)' earlier this year. His hits include songs such as 'Run It,' 'Kiss Kiss' and 'Without You.'
